    NIL and the Portal

    Even professional sports have salary caps. You can absolutely cap it and regulations will be in force sooner than later. This is a 4-6 year Wild West but it’s all but guaranteed not to last. Endorsements and NIL are similar but not the same.

    Can Someone Explain To Me Something

    We are in good shape to land 2 of those but we should definitely get 1 regardless. I love the options we have in the portal. If the staff does it right we could end up with a great team next year.

    USED to be, he is at Boston college now. And yes I understand it’s technically both.

    I still stand by Hurley started playing stall ball at almost 9 minutes left and that’s what let Illinois back in it. Cal used to do that and drive me insane, it will burn Hurley one day too.

    ***Final Four Thread***

    Was just think UConn didn’t beat Illinois, Illinois simply didn’t have enough time 😂😂 That being said Illinois missed 10+ point blank shots that just fell off the rim somehow. A few of those fall and it’s over.

    They have the number 1 offense in the nation. One game sample size isn’t enough so may want to reevaluate that take.

    Hurley making the classic Cal mistake the past few positions. Slowed his offense down and playing stall ball. Lead isn’t big enough to do that, I’m sure he will adjust but something I noticed.

    Arizona and Michigan are head and shoulders better than Illinois. I see either beating UConn by 10+.

    How does UConn not get more Technicals called on them, Players and Hurley both.

    My recruiting to salvage next season

    Why is it always about “salvaging.” We aren’t here to salvage we are here to win. With the portal it is entirely possible to have a much better team next year with a real chance to compete. Why don’t you stop the non sense and watch who we sign and then we can start with a knowledgeable...

    Jasper Johnson to the Portsl

    Somehow as a recruit he was listed at 6’5, 6’4 during college but as someone who has met him and spoke with him he measures in at maybe 6’2 without shoes and 6’3 with shoes if I were to bet. Kid has one of the weakest mental games I’ve seen for a high level recruit. His mentality toward...

    Are we going to have a team?

    We’ve lost no one of relevance who we wanted to come back and we are in the mix with much better replacements in the portal. Not seeing the point of this post, we can’t land the portal guys for 3 more days but within a week our roster will be coming together. This is exactly what we needed to...

    Mark Pope needs to rescind the Tyran Stokes offer immediately

    Self is only one Domino for Kansas, they still have to pony up more $$$ or they won't get him.

    Highest paid basketball players.

    Because Universitys dont respond to internet speculation on social media..... This isn't hard to understand, in this day and age things get out out there and "journalists" don't fact check at all and repost it or write an article and people blindly believe it. It's created the most gullible...
